The music of video games is wonderful – an art form in and of itself. Over decades, composers have been blessing games with numerous bangers, sweeping orchestral tracks, and powerful OSTs that have captured the imaginations of gamers forevermore. However, one especially catchy track that could easily find a home in your favourite JRPG doesn’t come from a video game at all. It was created for The Weather Channel back in 2006, for storm alerts.
So, okay, here’s a bit of context first. If you’re American, you may be familiar with The Weather Channel. It’s an Atlanta-based Television channel that, for years, has provided the latest weather-related updates for folks. Going for a picnic? Check The Weather Channel. Worried about how long the snow will last as a holiday inches closer? The Weather Channel has your back, baby. Is a storm approaching your area? Not only will you hear the latest from The Weather Channel, you’ll be greeted with an absolute banger. A theme that wouldn’t be blinked twice at in a Kingdom Hearts or Final Fantasy game.
Since then, this track has grown somewhat of a cult following all on its lonesome from people with fond memories of the track. Many of these people would go on to compare the similarities between this song for The Weather Channel to many of their favourite games. As of writing, the upload on Youtube has 511,401 views.
